As Yao Xiaoman and Zhou Lanfang listened to the conversation of these aunts, their faces became paler and paler.
The two female educated youth looked at each other and saw fear in each other's eyes.
They were both raised and loved at home. Even though they had brothers, their parents did not favor boys over girls and had never said such disparaging words to women in front of them, so the two were frightened by this phenomenon for a while.
However, this phenomenon, which makes them feel strange and frightened, is common here.
It’s just that they have been in the countryside for a short time and haven’t felt it very clearly yet.
Zhou Hongjun's family is a typical example of favoring boys over girls, but the family didn't last long, as some died, some ran away, and some moved away.
After learning about their thoughts, Qiao Qingqing told them privately: "So, don't give up your life for any man here, and don't think of getting married as a way to save yourself."
She had learned a bloody lesson before.
The two of them solemnly agreed.
Neither quilts nor cotton clothes can be made so quickly, and Qiao Qingqing and Sun Zhong agreed on a time, so they set out for the county town at 10 o'clock in the evening.
Lu Heng felt sorry for her for having to work so hard while pregnant, so he offered to do everything for her.
Qiao Qingqing yawned and said, "This matter...can only be handled by myself..."
Lu Heng did have some doubts in his mind.
But the more he got in touch with his lover, the more he felt that she was actually covered with a layer of mysterious veil.
He didn't understand, but he still respected it.
Since she insists, I can only be more cautious and pay more attention to her physical condition.
When they arrived at the grove, there was still half an hour before the agreed time.
Qiao Qingqing looked at Lu Heng apologetically: "You go out and wait for me first, they will be here soon."
Lu Heng hesitated for a moment, then turned around and left the grove.
After taking a few steps, Lu Heng turned back and reminded: "I'm right where the car was parked just now. If you have any questions, just call me or shine a flashlight."
Qiao Qingqing responded with a “hmm”.
Sun Zhong arrived on time.
Because Qiao Qingqing said that punctuality is Sun Zhong’s most valuable quality.
Sun Zhong, a smart man, could tell that Qiao Qingqing wanted him to arrive "on time", neither early nor late, so he paid special attention to time.
After Qiao Qingqing took out the water tank, they waited for another fifteen minutes before Sun Zhong and his party arrived pushing a cart.
The two sides were already familiar with each other and greeted each other generously when they met.
The process was already familiar to everyone, so there was no need for anyone to waste time. Sun Zhong had people lift the water tanks onto the cart, and the empty water tanks they pulled were left for the eldest sister to deal with.
As they walked away, Qiao Qingqing put away the water tank and waved the flashlight in the direction of Lu Heng.
Afterwards, he went to meet Lu Heng.
Lu Heng soon appeared in front of her. He had obviously been paying attention to the movements here. After seeing the "traffic light", he rushed over immediately.
"Are you okay?"
Lu Heng looked her up and down, afraid that she had lost a single hair.
But Qiao Qingqing said, "Something happened!"
Then, under Lu Heng's instantly tense gaze, she stretched out her hand to Lu Heng and said in a rare coquettish tone: "I'm tired, hold me."
Lu Heng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head helplessly at her.
But the doting that instantly emerged from his eyes made his pupils sparkle.
Bending down and carefully picking her up, Lu Heng said softly: "Hold on tight, I'll take you home now."
Seeing that his attention was immediately drawn and diverted, Qiao Qingqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief: I am really smart!
Before I got pregnant, tuna was my treasure.
Now that I’m pregnant, tuna has become a burden.
These creatures were huge in size. Dozens of tunas could consume a lot of spiritual spring water in a day. And just because she forgot to add spiritual spring water to the pond once, they ate up all the seafood she raised in the small pond!
The only solutions Qiao Qingqing could think of at the moment were to go to the beach to change the water every once in a while, or to sell the tuna as soon as possible.
Changing sea water is a heavy burden for her now, so Qiao Qingqing doesn't really want to go.
Then we can only try to sell more tuna.
When she went to Sun Zhong's house the day before yesterday, Qiao Qingqing, in addition to gathering intelligence, also revealed to Sun Zhong the news that she was going to sell a large number of tuna.
This made Sun Zhong very excited. Both of them knew that tuna was currently the fastest way to make money.
For this reason, when Sun Zhong went to the city this time, in addition to taking the two tunas to sell, he also had to actively explore new markets.
The amount Qiao Qingqing gave him was unprecedentedly large, selling eight tunas at one time!
This also means that if Sun Zhong does not want to be forced to lower his price, he can only explore markets outside the city.
…
The couple returned to Heyu Village. It was already five o'clock and some people had gotten up to cook. They could see the smoke rising from the kitchen.
There were also diligent people who got up early to fetch water, but Lu Heng was sharp-eyed and sharp-eared and deliberately avoided the villagers.
The man entered the house without anyone noticing. Qiao Qingqing was tired and sleepy, so she fell asleep immediately.
Lu Heng went into the kitchen first and quickly cooked a bowl of egg porridge.
But when he came over with the egg porridge, he saw his lover lying on the bed with her eyes open. Her gaze was bright and she looked energetic, without any sign of fatigue.
It was as if the person who was so sleepy not long ago was not her.
Lu Heng was shocked and stunned for a long time.
Qiao Qingqing was the first to smell the fragrance of the egg porridge. She twitched her nose and said, "What a nice fragrance!"
She got out of bed naturally and prepared to eat - since Lu Heng brought it to her now, it must be for her!
When Lu Heng saw that she was in high spirits, as if she had just woken up from a good sleep, his mind was in a mess.
Qiao Qingqing ignored his astonishment.
After all, she couldn't tell Lu Heng that she had gone into the cabin where time stood still and took a nap.
So she is full of energy now.
As for Lu Heng, he had been tossing and turning with her all night, and now he was probably much more sleepy than her.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qingqing urged him: "You eat too, and go to bed quickly after eating."
Lu Heng finally reacted and shook his head: "I'm not sleepy."
"Are you kidding me? How can I not be sleepy?"
Qiao Qingqing frowned: "Be obedient! You must have a good sleep."
Lu Heng: ...
He had an indescribable expression on his face.
After hesitating for a long time, Lu Heng whispered, "My dear, after the founding of the country, you are not allowed to become a spirit..."
Hearing this, Qiao Qingqing felt inexplicably guilty.
Although she is not a fairy, she has space and is heavy, so she is actually almost the same as a goblin... right?
Feeling guilty, Qiao Qingqing lowered her head and pretended to concentrate on eating, and did not respond.
When Lu Heng saw her reaction, the ridiculous guess in his mind gradually became reality, and his eyes widened.
Could it be that... Qingqing is really possessed by a demon? ? ?
He held his forehead and felt a headache coming on.
Lu Heng felt that he needed to sort out his thoughts.
For example, think about it carefully. If your wife is a spirit, then when the baby in her belly is born, will it look like a human baby or will it look like your real self?
If it's the latter, I'm afraid I won't dare send him to the hospital...
Of course, if my wife is really a spirit, then maybe she doesn't need to go to the hospital to give birth safely?
There is another possibility, my wife is possessed by a demon, in this state...
How long can his wife maintain this life?
Does he need to change his "wife" every once in a while?
——No, Lu Heng, what are you thinking about!
Even if your wife is a monster, she is a kind monster. How could she harm people?
Lu Heng felt that he had sorted out the tangled threads in his mind.
So he returned to normal and left the room.
Qiao Qingqing had already finished her meal and was feeding the chickens in the yard.
When Lu Heng saw her energetic appearance, the expression on his face, which was difficult to calm down, cracked again.
He looked up at the sky with melancholy.
Oh my God, I don’t understand, I can’t comprehend, no matter how hard I try I can’t figure it out…
Even Lu Heng felt tired. How come his pregnant wife became so energetic after just lying down for a while?
In order to allow his wife to finish breakfast as soon as possible and catch up on her sleep, he specially used the leftover rice from last night and mixed it with water to cook egg porridge. The whole process took no more than ten minutes.
What can you do in ten minutes?
Anyway, it’s not enough to make a sleepy pregnant woman jump up and down as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
But such a thing happened.
No matter how confused he was, Lu Heng still sighed and stepped forward to take over the job of feeding the chickens.
In order to comfort himself, he said to his wife, "Qingqing, you haven't slept all night, you must be sleepy now. Now that you have eaten, go to bed. I'll take care of the house."
Qiao Qingqing really felt sorry for him.
So he suggested kindly: "I think you need sleep more than I do. You should go to sleep and I will take care of you."
The corners of Lu Heng's mouth twitched slightly.
After a while, Lu Heng said faintly: "Qingqing... I am a man, a strong man, and you are a thin pregnant woman. Do you think that between the two of us, you can endure more than me? Does this make sense?"
At this moment, Lu Heng hinted at her with his eyes frantically, "Even if you are really a spirit, you should at least cover it up! Are you not going to pretend to be nice to me now?"
